Alternative to jit.movie~ for Max Live
Is there an alternative object that does the same thing as Jit.movie~ and works with Ableton Max Live? or maybe a patch of some sort? Jit.movie~ only works with when max is used as a stand alone app.
Hey,
I've just tested jit.movie~ on an M4L audio instrument and it seems to work perfectly.
What's the problem you are encountering?
It just turns yellow? Plus I have access to Max instrument not audio instrument?




hi Tade it's possible you don't have viddll package installed, you can install it via the package manager
I have the latest Max 8.2.1 software so viddll comes with it


If you are using the bundled version of Max, then Viddll is not included until you download it from the Package Manager, even if you have a standalone version of Max installed. Unless you tell Live to use the standalone version instead of the bundled version (Live Preferences -> File Folder -> Max Application -> Browse)
thank you very much!!!
Hey @ROB RAMIREZ, having the same issue here. I'm on a M1 Mac using Monterey 12.0.1
The jit.movie~ object always turns yellow (or brown for that matter). If I break it (by giving it a typo) and putting it back, it works. Double checked and I'm using the full Max version 8.2.2 and my AL shows I'm not using the bundled version (just in case).
The video below shows the issue. Once it is fixed the object keeps working until I close Max and open it again.
Check that you aren't using the bundled version of Max and that you are using the updated one. Refer to @ROB RAMIREZ's post
thanks Tade! I did, still no good
hi BELQUER, I can't reproduce any issues with using jit.movie~ with Live and 8.2.2. I recommend you contact support.
